How about a flight to Sydney using Emirates SkyCargo UAE5344 747-8F or a 777F?

Hmm, not bad.
Sounds totally ok in fact.
But how about from NZAA? I wonder if I could route from NZAA to Antarctoca then to South America's TierraDeFuego?
How long is the WSSS-YSSY?

Mayday!
Internet failure may invalid my Scoot flight.
Does it count for the hours, but I need to repeat, or you give me the hours you have proof of and let me start at WSSS, or I start in-air and land and taxi to complete my flight, or does it not count for hours or flight?

Totally fine.
Just a bit ****ed off at the ISP that decided two hours downtime would be a god idea
:x :evil: :roll: :o :cry: :?
Oh well, saturday IS better for longhauls....
Will research WSSS to Sydney but I was thinking, what planes in FG have skis?
I'd like to visit Antarctica.
Are skis needednto land on ice or snow?

Should keep me busy :)
7 hours is the sweet spot for me.
Ten hours -- if I get up early, it can be done, but headwinds may delay....
So, seven hours: up at 800 am (ie, showered, clothed, fed, watered, ready to start work), prepare plane, taxi, takeoff, schoolwork, watching plane between subjects, (popping over every 10 minutes when teacher not in room, 20 if in room), then lunch, watch all afternoon while reading Jim Herriot or Biggles, then finally land at about 3 o clock. Sometimes a nice 2 hour EU hop.

I kinda miss 320s and CRJS, but not much you can do when you are on the wrong side of the world IVL (in virtual life).

IAHM-COL, did I submit my LGAV-LIRN flight yesterday? If I don't do it immediately I forget.
